york harbor. >> the concept of liberty is an important symbol for new york. >> the flag of new york comes from the state seal, and it features both liberty and justice. >> the roman goddess liberty holds a staff with a cap on it known as a liberty cap. it symbolizes freedom from slavery. a discarded crown at liberty's feet represents another type of freedom -- america's independence from england. the goddess justice is blindfolded to show that justice is blind to race, religion, and income. scales represent equality for all, while the raised sword points out the willingness to fight for it. >> in the middle of the flag, you see the hudson river, and on the hudson river are two boats meant to represent commerce. atop the state seal isn eagle sitting on the globe. the globe shows the western hemisphere, and that was meant to represent the new world and new york's important place as a port city in the development of the new world. >> finally, the word "excelsior" encourages new yorkers to reach ever higher to achieve their goals. maybe that's why new york city has so many skyscrapers.
